Description
Ballyhack (Irish: Baile Each) is a small village located in the south-west of County Wexford, in Ireland, on the eastern shore of the Waterford Harbour, which is the estuary of The Three Sisters.
The village contains a 15th century Norman castle or tower house, which probably belonged to the Knights Hospitallers
The village contains a shop, a pub and a small quay for fishing boats.
A Ferry service operates between Ballyhack and Passage East (County Waterford), over the broad estuary of The Three Sisters.
There is also a cemetery located on a height near the edge of the village.
The school in the village is called St. Catherine's NS and is located on top of Ballyhack Hill. It opened in 1959.
